Not So Superman
Originally, Superman did not have the ability to fly. He could only leap tall buildings in one jump, but he'd always return to Earth. In the 1940s, he was going to be animated for a TV show. Animators didn't want to constantly draw his bended knees, so they changed it! Readers were surprised by the change but liked the edit in the end. Wow, how times have changed...
Big Storm Coming
Hate thunderstorms? Well, you might not like to learn that there are about 2,000 happening around the world at any one time. It's just some math applied to a very terrifying ordeal. The United States has about 100,000 thunderstorms annually. Around the world though, this number is about 16 million annually. That means there's about 2,000 happening all the time.
